Local Fisherman Drowned on Banks
Clifford Hawes, One of Crew of Sch. Good
Luck, Lost Life While Dory Was Being Lowered Over Side
Sch. Good Luck,
Capt. John Morash, is at the Boston fish pier this morning with her flag
at half mast for the loss of one of her crew, Clifford Hawes, 38 years,
single and belonging in this city.
Hawes was lost last Tuesday
on La Have bank. A dory was being put over. Hawes was in it.
A pin on one of the tackle gave way and the dory opended, pitching the
unfortunate fisherman into the sea. Hawes was a strong swimmer, but
nothing more was ever seen of him and not an outcry was heard. A dory was put over
and the vicinity was searched, but Hawes apparently was swallowed up in
some mysterious manner in the ocean. |
